George Strait Assures Us of the Power of Prayer in New Song "What Goes Up"
Iconic entertainer and King of Country Music, George Strait sings about the power of prayer in his new song "What Goes Up." Witten by Strait, his son Bubba and Jeff Hyde, the song gives assurance to those of us struggling with the question of if God answers prayers.
The song is taken from Strait's new record, Honky Tonk Time Machine which debutted at No. 1 on Billboard's Country album chart. Comprised of 12 original titles plus Strait's version of the Johnny Paycheck classic "Old Violin," Honky Tonk Time Machine marks an incredible 30th career studio album for Strait. Strait, who produced the album alongside Chuck Ainlay, wrote eight of the 13 tracks including "Sing One with Willie" featuring Willie Nelson that the pair happily debuted at a recent Nashville show, marking the first time the two country music icons have ever shared the stage.
I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
Caught a glimpse of Heaven when I couldn't catch my breath
I felt His presence in the darkest of days
I've asked for direction, and I've been shown the way
And I believe when I pray, somebody hears
When I fall on my knees, my words aren't fallin' on deaf ears
And He has the answers when the answers can't be found
I know without a doubt what goes up comes down
I've been lead from temptation, though I was standin' at it's door
Delivered from evil when I could run no more
I've seen the eyes of God through the eyes of a child
I've thanked Him for my blessings and I've felt it when he smiled
And I believe when I pray, somebody hears
When I fall on my knees, my words aren't fallin' on deaf ears
And He has the answers when the answers can't be found
I know without a doubt what goes up comes down
I raise my hands when my burdens are too heavy
And He lifts me up just like that cross he didn't have to carry
And He has the answers when the answers can't be found
I know without a doubt what goes up comes down
My greatest prayers will be answered
When he returns to claim his crown
I know without a doubt what goes up comes down (I believe)
What goes up must come down (I believe)
